@Cole Bossert I think @Sarah Kensinger and others have touched on the biggest qualities, especially communication.

If you need to get it rented fast, a great property manager would list the home for $2100 (below market) and get several quality applicants competing against each other to drive the price up to the max so you don't risk vacancy by starting out too high and gradually reducing to find the sweet spot.

Are there any particular investing strategies or methods you’re leaning toward?

@Darrius LloydTo start your house hacking journey, research neighborhoods with potential for multifamily properties and balance affordability with tenant quality.

The combination of families looking for more space, good schools, and a quieter lifestyle has been a big driver of demand.For my investments, I’ve noticed:High tenant quality: Families or professionals relocating to suburbs like Naperville and Wheaton tend to stay longer, which helps with stability.Increased competition: It’s definitely tougher to find good deals, especially in top-tier school districts.

Whomever will do her taxes when she does sell, (can be done prior, and should be asap) will have to submit a change of accounting method form .....I've had multiple clients that never took depreciation and when they sold, we had to fix it...doing your own taxes isn't as easy as some tax software companies make it seem 

I’m focused on buy-and-hold properties, fix-and-flips, and exploring the BRRRR method.

Are their listings detailed with good-quality photos?

Turns out, the right marketing found renters who appreciated the quality and were willing to pay a premium.

That being said, I'm not a fan of holding property in anything sub B quality.
